The historic coastal city of Porto is not one that should be overlooked for your next trip and with direct flights now running from Glasgow, it is one that should be on everyone's list.
In Porto, families come to the table later than usually found in Scotland – often friends and family do not sit down to eat until after 7pm, and are still found at the table several hours later. On our first night, with our Portuguese host, we sat down to dinner at 8pm and didn’t rise until 11.30pm.
Before serving, the Nisa region cheese is covered in a truffle oil and topped with crispy bacon. Definitely shareable, but really, why would you want to? As far as city breaks go, Porto is not one that should be overlooked. The city and surrounding area really does have everything travellers could look for. The beach, a winding river and hundreds of years of history and the dramatic buildings that come along with it. Starting the weekend break off with a half-day city tour with the excellent tour guide Nuno from Living Tours, we were driven about the city, taking in the highlights it had to offer.
Should you stumble across a book shop with a large queue outside, you have undoubtedly found Livraria Lello. This bookstore, often named the most beautiful in the world, has been touted as inspiration for a shop within the Harry Potter universe.
